[Watch] Pink Covers Alicia Keys' "Girl On Fire"

Ever wondered how Pink's edgy pipes would handle Alicia Keys' bombastic"Girl On Fire"? Well stop it before you hurt yourself, because, through the magic of BBC's Live Lounge, it is now a reality that can be heard via Youtube!

Taking the empowering, feminist mid-tempo track, Pink gives it the "Just Like A Pill" treatment: smooshing the two songs together to form one gorgeous mixed-genre baby! I just wish her vocals had been a little bit more peppy because though good, they were just missing that fire- which Pink usually has in spades- needed to sell the lyrics fully.
Maybe I should be grateful Pink toned down the vocal. Any more rousing and I might have started burning bras. And since I don't have any of those, who knows what I would have ended up setting alight....

But not very well. I think the song is outside of her vocal abilities. She should just gift it to P!nk. ( presuming she wrote it and is in the position to give it to someone else.)Kinda ''take the money and run'' lol

After hanging on this blog for a couple of months,listening to all these so-called divas perform, I have come to the conclusion most fail miserable to live up to their names. And most of the time their fans are forced to either make excuses or pretend performances are great when in fact, if it wasn't for it being a famous name, they would be considered quite mediocre.It's a sad state of affairs IMOI am glad thanks to the internet I also have access to singers who do consistently deliver the goods. :-)
